Set the curved
glass inside the
gutter on the lip
that is sticking out.
When you set the
curved glass on the
gutter
5
, push
the glass towards
the aluminum
frame. The frame
may not be exactly
square, so go to
the ridge and push
it over to make it square to the glass. Work carefully as the
curved glass does not have as much bending tolerance as flat
glass. When you fasten on the aluminum cap, do not screw it
too tightly. You do not want to put too much pressure on the
glass. When an aluminum glass bar is bent, the tempering of
the aluminum may vary somewhat and the glass bar may not
be
exactly
the same radius as the glass. Therefore, you need to
take extra care when you install the curved pieces. If the glass
does not fit solidly onto the foam rubber, just lift the glass off,
put on a second row of foam (usually in the middle of the
curve) and reinstall the glass.
